It grapples with the unimaginable tragedy of losing a child, the serious concerns about the fitness of the USS Thresher to leave dock for sea trials, the catastrophic implosion of the submarine that killed all 129 aboard, and the communications between Jack and his parents after the Thresher sank. I composed this piece for the five extraordinary voices of VAMP Vocals for their September 2023 concert “Between the Worlds.” The treble voices tell the story and react to the narrative over evocative vibraphone harmonies. In the middle section, the percussionist bangs loudly on metal to sound like submarine pipes, structure, and hull breaking. The loss of the USS Thresher (SSN-593) spurred the Navy to institute the very successful Submarine Safety Program (SUBSAFE). The composer encourages performers to take dramatic license to enhance the emotional impact of the tragedy and the parents’ response. Recording and video will be available soon.Composer websitehttps://adrienneinglis.com/Composer YouTube channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@adrienneinglis.
